This injured Roadrunner has been hopping around on one foot for over a year and I finally grabbed a photo. It does slow him/her down but hasn’t prevented it from acquiring a partner! (see second photo)

Check out this California quail's funky topknot! The quail's topknot normally looks like a single feather, but it's actually several feathers. I think this is one of the chicks from this summer, mostly grown but still working on his topknot. #birds #nature #wildlife 🐡

A very close-up photo of a male California quail, showing its head with bushes in the background. The quail's topknot consists of one long feather and two short feathers.
